My favorite of the new Cricut cartridge release has got to be the Damask Decor cartridge and I love it because of the card feature. Each of the damask designs has a coordinating card and envelope design, making elegant cards a snap!

Check out the handbook page below:

I cut this card at 3-3/4" using the Damask-13 image and the "card" feature key. I love the notched edges! Final card size ends up being 3-3/4" x 5-1/4".

Using white paper and teal Stampin Up! paper gives the card a different look. I used a thick glue dot to hold on my bow, made from white satin ribbon from Michaels. Some pearls give the outside a little more elegance. I tied the sentiment onto the bow using some Martha Stewart twine. Speaking of the sentiment, it is from a new set from My Creative Time called "Just A Little Note To Say". I like the fact that the inside sentiment and the outside go together...see below:

What's great also about this cartridge is the matching envelope feature. I cut the envelope in white at 4" so I had plenty of room for my bow and pearls on the front.

Hey, did you hear that we are giving away a full size Cricut Cake machine this week? Be sure and leave a comment under all posts this week to maximize your chances to win!

Oh I love these cartridge...it's one of my favorite to get now.....and it's because what you can do with it just like this.....would also love to have the cricut cake.....and if you put these two together..what amazing cakes you could make....tfs

I think this is a really pretty, yet simple card! It could be used for various events. Thanks for the inspiration and chance to win the cricut cake! I would love to make cakes the cricut way!stephanie.cox03@gmail.com

beautiful elegant card.. what a great cartridge this is!!wow!!!!!!! i love the give away!! A cricut cake..... i would love to have one so thanks so much for this change!!!and thanks for all the lovely tips!!hernandezmarieke@gmail.com

Love how you tied the sentiment on, adorable card, and the colors are beautiful. Super excited about the giveaway this week! I'd love to win it for my best friend, as i do not bake... haha. JenBrierley2 at gmail dot com

This really is elegant! The teal and white is such a wonderful combination and the satin ribbon and pearls are the perfect touches to finish things off. I would have loved to have seen the matching envelope too.

I do need to branch out also Michelle. I have a thing for the flowers I make with my cricut. I look at my blog(if you want to call it that) and 9 out of 10 cards have a flower. I think I will have to put Damask Decor on my list. What a wonderful give a way!

OK, this cartridge seems like a must have!!! I absolutely love the card feature - don't have any carts to my knowledge that have this - as it makes it so easy to create, as you stated, an elegant card in a fraction of the time!! I love to use digital/stamped images for my cards and have a hard time NOT using one but I think this would totally move me into a new direction (get me out of my box!!). So the savings jar is getting started for this cartridge!

The Damask Design cartridge has been on my wish list since I first say it. Now to see how well the card and envelope features work only increased my desire to add this to my collection. Beautiful card.

What a beautiful card. I was thinking about buying this cartridge but didn't think I would use it that much. I'm really into card making so I guess I'll buy it. Crossing my fingers I win the giveaway this week.

Love Love Love the card! The Damask cartridge is AWESOME and the Cricut Cake is the new coolest thing. It would be great to use it for a cake at my twins 1st birthday party this October! It's always fun to get the new email daily. Always inspires me!!!!!
